2019-04-06 6:30 PM	Marana	85658	Western Diamondback Rattlesnake	19" 4c Western Diamondback in garage. Customer called us despite the urging of his landlord to wait until tomorrow. Did a courtesy inspection and found a beautiful back yard that is mostly contained by high block walls. A section would need fencing where only a short wall exists with steel bars. One gate that would also need to be shored up. Customer will need a written estimate to present to his landlord and I suggested that a deciding factor , in the decision, could be that the property could increase in value with the snake fence installation. Try both phone and E-mail to set up a date and time for the estimate.

2019-04-05 8:00 AM	Benson	85602	None	Derek originally talked to this customer, but was unable to do the inspection, due to his being out of town. Customer was bitten and envenomated by a young, probable Western Diamondback, last week. Was doing some work on the front of the house, and was bitten in the right hand by a rattlesnake hiding in the weeds and grass. Snake was most likely near its winter retreat, and has quite possibly left to forage. Ironically customer had killed a large adult shortly before suffering his bite. Not a candidate for fencing, but educated him on snake safety and on how to reduce sightings by cleaning up debris.

2019-04-04 4:00 PM	Scottsdale	85255	None	I showed up and looked around for a snake after the fire department removed one from inside her home today. There was nothing to be found.
2019-04-04 3:00 PM	Phoenix	85085	None	The past couple of days they found some shed snake skin in their backyard. They were pretty concerned that the skin meant a snake was living on their property and seeing as they just moved to the area they wanted someone to come remove any snakes that were there. After looking around I couldn't find anything, but I was able to give them some advice on to protect their yard.
2019-04-04 7:00 PM	Tucson	85719	None	Probable yearling gopher snake that escaped the customer`s attempt to kill it. Escaped under a concrete slab, possibly injured.

2019-04-03 7:00 PM	Tucson	85712	Western Diamondback Rattlesnake	16" 3c Western Diamondback that had been hanging out on the porch. As this is an apartment/condo community, customer is not a candidate for fencing. Found snake coiled beneath a shrub a few feet from front porch.

2019-04-02 1:00 PM	Cave Creek	85331	None	Big property with strange layout on the side of a mountain, tons of snakes there. Most cant be protected, but the backyard probably can by the pool. There may be a way to protect the driveway area as well, but will have to look at the gate. Recommend seeing this one in person, and possibly having Nick look at it too to assess the main gate.

He has even contributed to a book on saving the species on Grand Cayman. He captured this pair of Western Diamondbacks after his wife discovered them coiled together in a flower bed, while weeding. Unsure what to do next, and uncomfortable with venomous animals, he called us and I gave him a reduced price to relocate them. He was a fantastic guy and gave me a tour of his amazing Iguana room which included some unique and rare specimens. 31" 5b with a good taper and 33" 8b with a slight taper. Possible mating pair and I released them together in nearby habitat.

Despite her fear she watched and followed the snake resulting in an easy capture and release. Put customer in for a fence referral despite the fact that the former fence person said that there was nothing he could do, as the property was just too expansive. I believe a "safe zone can be established around the pool area and have already conveyed my thought to Jill on this . I`ve been out to this home at least 4 times in less than a year and am hoping the children can be given a safe area in which to play.
2019-03-29 10:00 AM	Cave Creek	85331	None	Large rocky areas in backyard make it so a snake fence cannot be built.
